will show you that the source package of both is called "xulrunner". Apt-get's man page says that it will get "the newest available
version of that source package", thus the newest version of 1.9.1.

apt-cache policy xulrunner-1.9 xulrunner-1.9.1

or lines starting with "ii" in

dpkg -l '*xulrunner*'

Thank you Sam for your answers.

Now I want to fix a freedom bug in galeon, which currently proposes to
download flash plugin. This problem comes from xulrunner-1.9 itself
(metad binary version is xulrunner-1.9.0.19-6).

So do I have to patch xulrunner-1.9.0.19-7 source I can get from Lenny?
(As I can't get xulrunner-1.9.0.19-6 source.)

1.9.0.19-6 source seems still available [1], but probably soon to be replaced, so you might as well patch .19-7.
